got a few prelim shots. the camera phone pics dont nearly give the color any justice, and thats at pre-wetsand and all. just a few bumper mock up pics, i couldnt resist :headbang: ![http://i3.photobucket.com/albums/y78/TurboLS1ss/ebm2.jpg](http://i3.photobucket.com/albums/y78/TurboLS1ss/ebm2.jpg) ![http://i3.photobucket.com/albums/y78/TurboLS1ss/ebm.jpg](http://i3.photobucket.com/albums/y78/TurboLS1ss/ebm.jpg) ![http://i3.photobucket.com/albums/y78/TurboLS1ss/ebm3.jpg](http://i3.photobucket.com/albums/y78/TurboLS1ss/ebm3.jpg) im going to tastefully black out as much stuff as possible on the car to compliment the blue. i think it’ll turn out pretty nice and unique ---

thanks guys -electron blue -i did half the work myself. when it came to straightening the body, i was helped by one of my dads employees…he was pretty good. -i know the black looked good in that picture, but 80% of the time it didnt look like that, and i was cleaning that paint 24/7. theres 243932974 black ls1 camaros out there, (and they look good), but i wanted a change -the paint was beat (imo)…there were alot of little things that pissed me off -i got the silver lined SS emblems, but i MIGHT send them back and get the red outlined. i got them before i knew exactly what color i was going, because i was trying to get away from the red accents. i hate red accents, but in this case i may make an acception. hoping to be on the road by thursday, but will def be at chestnut ridge this weekend :tup: ---

looks cool. I’m interested to see how it’ll look blacked out- i think it not being blacked out might look better… …but the color is gorgeous. are those wheels in the picture where the car is black, going to be the wheels for this season? :tup: ---

i got some new wheels. nothing specail…pretty similar actually. for the guys who are familiar, they are zr1s, 17x9.5 and 17x11. 315s for the back, and they have a little lip. fit the car much nicer and im not offended if you guys like the black better, haha. i like the black too, thats why i bought it like that. the upkeep was not worth it imo, and i could never get it to look right [Next page](https://forums.speedlife.net/t/new-look-for-07/29214.md?page=2)
